The descent of blood due to pills after the cessation of menstruation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, there are women who go to the female doctor, and she prescribes pills for them to induce their monthly period, even though these are women who have already passed through menopause, and this is to prevent them from certain diseases, such as heart disease and osteoporosis. So, if they experience bleeding, are they required to refrain from prayer and fasting, or not?
Answer:
No, as long as one has reached the age of menopause, which is fifty years. Even if blood comes without the pills, if it comes without the pills, it is bleeding and corrupt blood, and it is not considered menstruation. Pray, because there is no menstruation after fifty. The blood that comes after fifty is not menstruation; rather, it is bleeding blood or corrupt blood.
